[Comprehensive] Light and Shadow

As the body was torn apart, the red liquid surged and fell, and the light and shadow on the ground reflected the distorted human body.

As far as the eye can see, there is only a piece of desperate crimson, and the suffocation and despair of MadeIn are wrapped in this dilapidated urban area.

The walls of the Trost area were breached, and the cannibal giants were raging. Even if the soldiers wanted to resist, they could only face the fate of being eaten.

In addition to desperate escape, what else can human beings do?

When the recruits of the surviving regiment rushed into the headquarters, their sights were full of shards of glass, and what the shards reflected was the same man with purple hair.

It's a weird scene.

The man in the uniform of the Survey Corps sat proudly on the wooden table with his legs crossed, holding a pot of tin cans in his hand, drinking wine as if leisurely and calmly, without any panic in his eyes. Any fear and gore in the scene seems to have drifted away.

There seems to be nothing in this world that can scare him forever, and death will surrender at his feet.

"Who are you?" Jean looked at the man sitting on the table in surprise, his throat was a little dry.Was it the one who fled to headquarters with them?No, it's impossible, there is no fear in this man's eyes at all, not the eyes that a fleeing person should have.

"Leo, you are an old member of the Survey Corps." The man looked around at the dozen or so people who broke in with a friendly look. The man smiled and waved his hand, but his casual self-introduction surprised everyone. watching him.

Jean paused, his eyes widened in disbelief, and then a flame of anger suddenly rose from his heart, "If this is the case, why are you hiding here! Don't save yourself!"

Before the other companions had time to react, Jean ran up to the man in three steps and two steps, and angrily grabbed Leo's collar with both hands, but the smile on the man's face was extremely dazzling.

But immediately afterward, the surrounding companions ran over and stopped Rang's movements together. Obviously, infighting is the most unwise choice at this time, not to mention that the opponent is still the elite of the investigation corps.

"Necessary?" Leo raised his eyebrows, and his purple hair shook casually. There was no anger on the man's face, nor did he fight back. Instead, he accepted it calmly. His slender fingers stroked the wood with clear texture table, and then lightly knocked a few muffled sounds.

"You are the elite of the survey corps, assisting in the crusade against 67 giants." One of the soldiers stood beside Jean, pretending to look at Leo calmly, trying to read some useful information from the man's expression, but apparently none In vain.

"Hey, the investigation is good. Then you should know that I have never killed a giant with my own hands." Leo looked at the soldier with some appreciation.

"Then you can't do nothing!" Jean frowned tightly, unable to suppress his anger and shouted loudly at Leo.

"I just don't like saving weak people. For those who abandon their companions and the city and desperately want to hide here, I don't seem to be qualified to say anything about me." Leo raised his eyebrows.

"It's just death in vain outside! Let's meet here and come up with a better plan!" Jean was silent for a while, but then he said loudly to Leo, and such words seemed a bit guilty, as if they were intentional Tell the shaken self the same out loud.

"Really? Don't tell me." Mingming Leo was smiling gracefully, but those purple eyes seemed to see through all his thoughts, and the cold voice seemed to pierce into his flesh and blood, tearing his heart one by one, trembling The illusion seeps into every cell.

The man raised his finger gracefully, then pointed to his chest, and looked at Jean teasingly, as if to say - the answer is in your heart, and I have already seen it.

"Get down!" Someone yelled. Before he could react, a wall of the headquarters suddenly shattered, and the body of a soldier standing by the wall was suddenly blown away by the huge gravity. The sudden light not only did not give people warmth, but gave people greater fear.

This world is a broken battlefield.

Even if it is bright, it will give human beings a fatal blow and extreme fear.

The sight suddenly dimmed, and all the people looked at the huge gap in the wall at the same time, and that look was enough to make everyone tremble with fear.

A huge face clearly appeared outside the wall, with a ferocious smile on its face. The giant's head seemed to be firmly embedded in the wall, and then he turned his head. The crack in the wall opened wider, and then the giant used even greater strength Bang your head against the wall.

The world was shaken to the extreme again, accompanied by screams of fear from the human beings hidden on the headquarters floor.

Everyone collapsed and wanted to run deeper into the headquarters, and the self-righteous safe zone became the only consolation at this time.

And this consolation is enough to drive all those who survived crazy.

Jean stood there in a daze, just looking at the two giant's ferocious faces in the huge gap.

At that moment, the fear reached its extreme, and the self who had been standing on the death line had finally touched the temperature of death.

It's just that sometimes, when the nerves are tense to the extreme, I feel that I have become calm again.

I don't know if I'm really afraid, or maybe it's just a purer emotion - despair.

Actually, I should be clear.

It's normal, this is the so-called reality.

Had I been trying to immerse myself in the environment all this time?In fact, I should be very clear. As long as you use common sense to think about things like reality, you can easily understand it. We can't win against the fact that we are so big.

——The end of the human race has arrived.

"We're all going to die, sooner or later, that's a fact."

Someone patted him on the shoulder. Although the strength was not heavy, the whole world seemed to have regained its five senses.

Standing beside him was Leo, a man who claimed to be the elite of the Survey Corps. The outline of the man's facial features was elegant and full of strength.He spoke slowly, even in the face of such a huge giant, there was still no trace of fear in that man's eyes, just indifferently terrifying.

But it was precisely this kind of indifference that made the despair in my heart gradually recede for some reason.

"Want to kill a giant?"

"...you, what are you talking about?"

Jean looked at Leo in shock, obviously he should be annoyed, didn't this man hide in the headquarters first, why would he make such a joke at this time?

However, looking at Leo's frivolous smile, Jean felt that this man seemed to be telling the truth.

How to kill a giant?

Relying on such insignificant human strength, how can we fight against giants?

"Try it." Under Jean's shocked gaze, Leo slowly walked towards the gap in the wall, but in Jean's eyes, the man walked towards the giant's mouth.

Crazy, this is absolutely insane!What the hell is this man trying to do!Relying on his strength alone, it is absolutely impossible to defeat two such huge giants!Jean screamed frantically in his heart, but he couldn't say anything. He wanted to grab Leo and ask him why he was going crazy, but what was even more frightening was that he believed this man's words in his heart.

Not because of anything else, just because of—the look in this man's eyes.

"I won't let you die, recruit."

Leo turned around slowly, with a smile still on the corner of his mouth, and the opening arc seemed to split all the noise and shock.

The purple-haired man stood in place, holding the sword with both hands, his eyes were cold, and the transmitter at the waist shot out the anchor and fixed it on the huge face of the giant. As the high-pressure gas rolled back the cable of the anchor, the man's body was Looking at the rapid rotation in the air, and then with a rotation of the arm, the eyes of the two giants were cut off immediately, and the blood bloomed on the wall in a strange and dazzling shape.

The man quickly stepped on a giant's head, and then jumped up in an instant, and then launched the retainer against the wall, using the rapid movement of his body to restrain the actions of a giant who was temporarily blind but constantly struggling.Leo's body leaned back, the blade cut a neat semicircle in the air, and the struggling giant's hands were cut off neatly.

This man's battle is gorgeous and brutal.

Jean stood there trembling all over, watching Leo's fast-moving body and extremely skilled fighting.

The trembling of the body didn't seem like fear, but excitement. Seeing Leo's battle, he felt the blood rushing to his head. At that moment, he felt that the giant was not invincible.

In fact, when he saw Leo aiming at him, Jean did the same.

Ignoring the panicked and worried screams of his companions behind him, he let his hands hold the sword tightly and jumped out on the ground, soaring into the air, the anchor fell on the giant, his body moved rapidly, and when he was about to fall on the giant, a With a vigorous swing of his arm, the back of the giant's neck, which was completely restrained, was cut off.

Successful.

Jean's hands were trembling constantly, and his whole body seemed to be soaked in sweat, but he succeeded.

The giant's body fell down uncontrollably, and Jean raised his eyes excitedly to look at Leo, only to find that the purple man's eyes were icy cold. His eyes seemed to have returned from hell, but the cruelty Spread the coquettish beauty.

"Be careful!" Jean yelled in fear when he saw a giant's hand slapping Leo rapidly.

In the next second, Leo jumped up, easily dodged the giant's attack, and then stepped on the giant's hand, moving quickly and cutting the giant's eyes with a swing of the blade, and then used the cable to Quickly vacated behind the giant, a violent kick caused the giant to lose his balance and fall forward.And Jean opened his eyes wide, and immediately followed Leo's pace, cutting off the back of the giant's neck again.

Next, Jean felt like his whole body was turning on a motor, and he didn't have time to distinguish Leo's intentions. He just tried his best to keep up with the figure of the purple-haired man, and this kind of momentum to follow with all his strength was enough to make him forget all his thoughts. fear.

Every jump and every swing of the man's blade seemed impeccable after tens of thousands of calculations, and his whole body carried an astonishing aura as if he had been killed in hell, but he could only pant heavily as the man restrained the giant. Cut off the back of the giant's neck while acting.

When Leo and Jean solved the four giants gathered outside the headquarters, the two entered the headquarters through the gap in the wall.

But this time, the soldiers in the headquarters did not panic or fear, they just stood there quietly, looking at Leo with excited and admiring eyes, and the joy of regaining life seemed to fill the hearts of these people.

"Win! I actually won!"

"We really defeated the giant! It's really amazing!"

"You don't have to die, that's great..."

"We survived!"...

The cries of victory echoed on the headquarters floor. Although the entire city has been destroyed, wandering giants are still wandering in the city, and even the gaps in the solid city walls have not been repaired, the joy of survival is enough to make humans forget all the dangers.

Jean was also excitedly surrounded by other companions, and his self-confidence swelled rapidly at this moment, but when he looked back at Leo, Jean's body was frozen as if frozen, and Leo's eyes looked cold And cruel.

"Oh!"

Everyone's ecstatic movement pauses, and then they all look out of the wall in horror.

"Giant, there are two giants coming!"

"Why is it still there! No, it's okay, we are not busy!"

"Yes, we have elites from the Survey Corps here!"

"Ah! The giant is approaching!"...

Jean slowly broke free from the encirclement of his companions, took a deep breath, and wanted to slay the giant with Leo again.

It's just that when Jean walked in front of Leo, Jean felt that something was different from before.

"You must pin your hopes on other people, so that you can survive?"

The corner of Leo's mouth raised a slight smile again, but those purple eyes seemed to be shining with a bloody light, which was cold and suffocating.

Jean Ben wanted to speak, but seeing Leo's eyes, he felt that his throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand, so he could only speak.

"I won't save you."

The easy seven words seemed to take away everyone's air.

Everyone's eyes widened in shock, and there seemed to be a crazy airflow in the air that was about to expand.

"The human beings hiding in the city are the same as the giants outside the city. They want to climb over the city wall every day. The difference is that we are the weak side, so human beings are constantly in fear."

Leo walked slowly towards the wooden table, and the people around him couldn't help but give way to Leo, but their eyes followed the purple-haired man closely.

"Every day, I want to climb the giant wall, but I am afraid of turning into a pile of flesh and blood. The real fear is not being locked in this giant wall, but being imprisoned forever in this decayed world."

The man walked to the wooden table, looked at the iron cans on the table and sneered, then turned his head to look at the soldiers around him.

"Remember that this land and the sky still belong to human beings, so even if your hands and feet are bitten off, you are not allowed to give up. Since the same is going to perish, it is better to take the courage to be bitten to death in despair than to have the courage to die." The courage to die with your own blood."

The man's hands pierced the two sword blades into the wooden table. At that moment, the cold and bloodthirsty breath spread, as if it was about to shatter the world in an instant.

The steady and sonorous voice spread, as if something exploded suddenly in the air, and inexplicable vines stretched out from the gap, repeatedly entangled the hearts of the soldiers, constantly squeezing a stream of boiling blood to rush out of the body.

The man's steps were steady and firm, the sound of military boots stepping on the floor seemed to sweep through all breaths, no one stopped Leo's steps, he just silently watched the man's back out of sight, and walked behind the door, the one they hadn't yet into the field.

Leo walked in the corridor, looking at the mottled and cracked marks on the surrounding walls, and then slowly looked at the broken windows.

The world outside the window is equally broken.

Just looking up like this, the shards of the sun seem to be about to fall.

Leo raised his head slightly, his combat uniform outlined his slender and muscular body, and the giant's blood twisted into some kind of lines, which was dark and depressing after the sunshine.

The man's purple pupils seemed to be smeared with crushed light. The man slowly stretched out his right hand and stroked the badge of Wings of Freedom on his left arm. His eyes seemed to slowly see another person's figure through the sky.

——The man who deserves to have the whole sky to fly freely.

The corner of the purple-haired man's mouth slowly curled up in a mocking arc, his head was lowered, and when the drooping eyelids touched the eyelids, it seemed as if the world would be crushed.

"Human... hope?
